"Yuhao, was that Martial Soul Fusion Skill of the Lan Sisters your doing?"

During their break, Wang Dong suddenly asked. When they had encountered the Martial Soul Fusion Skill today, she had thought they were in for a hard fight, but the other side had collapsed almost immediately.

"Their spiritual power was very weak. A little spiritual shock broke their fusion apart."

Huo Yuhao answered. In truth, the spiritual power of all the new students fell within the category of "very weak" to him.

"I see."

Wang Dong sighed, while also envying Huo Yuhao's Body Martial Soul. Were Body Martial Souls really that powerful?

"By the way, our Martial Soul fusion..."

Wang Dong suddenly said. Logically speaking, theirs should count as a Martial Soul Fusion Skill too, right?

Although their previous fusion had been released with Huo Yuhao as the core, it should still have counted as a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

"Want to give it a try?"

Wang Dong said. They might encounter Soul Elders in later battles. If the two of them truly had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, that would give them another option.

"No need. We won't need a Martial Soul Fusion Skill to deal with them."

Huo Yuhao shook his head in refusal. He did not know why, but something in his heart strongly resisted fusing Martial Souls with Wang Dong, as though something were warning him that once he took that step, some irreversible change would occur.

"Fine."

Wang Dong did not press the matter. She also felt that their previous situation might have been unusual. After all, how could Martial Soul Fusion Skills be encountered so easily?

"I hope we don't face any Soul Elders every day."

Wang Dong made a wish under the covers. If possible, she did not want to encounter opponents at the Soul Elder level so soon.

"Freshman Class Nine. Ning Tian, Level 31 auxiliary-type Tool Soul Elder."

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong: "..."

"You jinxed us."

Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong speechlessly. She had just made that wish last night, and they ran into one today. If that was not a jinx, what was?

"How was I supposed to know?"

Wang Dong had nothing to say either. Who knew why they would encounter a Soul Elder today?

Still, there was nothing to be done but fight. Wang Dong was not afraid of Soul Elders.

"Match begin!"

At the referee's command, the wings of the Light Goddess Butterfly spread behind Wang Dong, and she immediately charged toward the three people ahead.

"Good!"

Wu Feng shouted, flames erupting around her body as fine dragon scales rippled across part of the skin on the left side of her face and along her left arm.

She rushed forward to meet Wang Dong head-on, while Nanmen Yun'er and Ning Tian at her side did not remain idle either.

Nanmen Yun'er burst forward at an astonishing speed toward Huo Yuhao, only to be entangled by Xiao Xiao. Behind them, Ning Tian summoned her Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. Light bloomed from the pagoda as she bestowed support buffs upon the two people fighting on the front lines.

"This little girl's Martial Soul has a major flaw."

After studying for so long, Electrolux had gained quite a bit of understanding of Martial Souls and easily saw the enormous flaw in the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda.

"What do you think, Elder Yi? Is there any way to solve it?"

Xia Liang asked. He seemed to have no way to directly resolve the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda's flaw either. It seemed he could only get immortal herbs from the Yin-Yang Ice and Fire Well. Or, if they did not mind the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda mutating, Xia Liang did have quite a few methods. With so many potions, a little refinement could turn it into all kinds of pagodas.

A Water Pagoda, a Fire Pagoda, an Iron Pagoda, a Gold Pagoda, a Diamond Pagoda, and so on.

Once Yuhao obtained his second soul ring, Xia Liang could go to the Yin-Yang Ice and Fire Well to get some things. If there were any needs then, they could visit the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect to stock up.

After all, it was the greatest sect in the world still in existence. There would certainly be no shortage of good things inside.

At that moment, on the competition stage.

"Come on!"

With Ning Tian's boosts, Wu Feng fought even more fiercely. For a moment, Wang Dong could not even hold her off!

After being forced back, Wang Dong immediately recognized the key person on the other side. That support was simply too strong.

Wang Dong immediately looked toward Huo Yuhao. It was time for him to act. Otherwise, she and Xiao Xiao might not be able to withstand them.

"Mm."

Huo Yuhao casually raised his hand. Upon seeing this, Ning Tian immediately focused intently on him, her gaze meeting his pale blue eyes.

Ning Tian was ready. The instant he acted, she would immediately dodge. The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect had spent so long among auxiliary Soul Masters that their talent for evasion had reached perfection.

Unfortunately, the moment Ning Tian looked at Huo Yuhao, she had already fallen for it.

"Ning Tian!"

Wu Feng felt the weakening of the buffs within her body and turned to look back at Ning Tian.

Without any warning whatsoever, Ning Tian had collapsed directly onto the competition stage.

"Ning Tian has lost her ability to fight."

The referee immediately arrived beside Ning Tian to inspect her. Once he confirmed that she had lost her combat ability, he promptly carried her away.

"What did you do?"

Wu Feng glared furiously at Huo Yuhao and lunged toward him, intending to strike him down. But becoming distracted on the battlefield was a mistake, and Wang Dong would not let this opportunity pass.

"Your opponent is me!"

Without Ning Tian's support, and with Wu Feng distracted, Wang Dong seized the opportunity to treat her to a full blast of her second soul skill, sending her straight off the stage.

Nanmen Yun'er, the only one left, immediately conceded. Holding back Xiao Xiao alone was already about her limit. Facing all three of them at once was beyond her.

"What happened?"

The two teachers in the viewing stands both sensed that something was wrong. How had Ning Tian suddenly collapsed?

"How is that possible?"

Mu Jin's face was full of shock. With Ning Tian's support, Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er should have been close to the Soul Elder level no matter what. He had originally thought this battle would be a complete sweep, so how had Ning Tian suddenly fallen?

At that moment, Wang Yan, who was watching from nearby, respectfully said to an old man beside him, "Elder Xuan, this is the student with the Body Martial Soul I mentioned. I heard he was only Level 11 when he enrolled, yet he is already Level 19 now. Could it be...?"

Wang Yan was extremely excited. From Level 11 to Level 19 so quickly—could this be the second awakening of a Body Martial Soul?

"Insufficient talent. His first soul ring is only a ten-year one. He will likely stop at three rings in the future."

"As for why he cultivates so quickly, it has nothing to do with a second awakening."

Xuan Zi waved his hand, swatting away that speculation as though he were chasing flies. As he spoke, his gaze swept over Huo Yuhao once more. If Huo Yuhao had not happened to be attacked alongside the young sect master of the Clear Sky Sect and obtained a large amount of cultivation resources, he probably would not even have reached Level 12 by now.

It was merely the speed gained by piling up resources. It had nothing to do with talent.

Fortunately, he had not absorbed that Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone. Otherwise, he would have been courting death.

In the future, the Martial Soul Department would certainly reclaim that Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone. Hopefully, this brat would be obedient when the time came.

A Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone was enough to make people kill and rob for treasure outside. If this brat refused to obey, they would not care if he died out there.

Xuan Zi coldly looked at Huo Yuhao, but suddenly felt a chill run down his back, as though some terrifying existence had fixed its gaze upon him.

"Why is that old bastard looking over here? Did I not hit him hard enough last time?"

Xia Liang was puzzled as well. How did Xuan Zi still dare to look over with that kind of gaze? Had the last beating not hurt enough? Did he want to die?
